Williams-Sonoma Baking Fun

Back in December of last year, Williams-Sonoma released an exclusive series of kitchen items for the Snow White baking enthusiast. This 2011 collection is still available and consists of a cakelet pan, spatula, cupcake kit, cookie cutter set, and a child-size apron. All sold separately. Let's have a quick look at each...

Cakelet Pan...

Made exclusively for Williams-Sonoma by Nordic Ware, the nonstick cast-aluminum cakelet pan, bakes eight mini cakes in the shapes of Snow White and all Seven Dwarfs. Retail price $39.95 (USD).

Spatula...

A stainless-steel handle and a flexible, heat-resistant nylon-silicone Snow White head make flipping cookies a blast. Won't scratch nonstick pans. BPA free, dishwasher safe. And again, as with all of these items, it's a Williams-Sonoma exclusive. Retail price $14.00.

Cupcake Decorating Kit...

The boxed set contains 24 cupcake liners (12 Snow White and 12 Evil Queen). They're made of greaseproof paper with food-safe soy ink. Also includes 24 die-cut printed paper toppers attached to wooden toothpicks. Retail price $12.00.

Cookie Cutters Set...

Equipped with metal spring-loaded stamps, this set of four cookie cutters imprint the facial features of Snow White, Grumpy, Dopey and the Evil Queen. Made of plastic. Retail price $19.95.

Kid Apron...

Snow White is embroidered on a pink cotton twill apron made for junior-size children. Includes front pocket and adjustable neck strap. Can also be ordered with up to 9 personalized embroidered letters. Measures 19" wide x 25" long. Retail price $24.95.

Vintage Snow White Baby Spoons

Stamped with "1847 ROGERS BROS.," this silver-plated etched baby spoon probably dates from the 1950s. The piece features the Snow White characters up and down the handle on both the front and back sides.

This spoon looks nearly identical to the one above except it is stamped with "R.W. CO. LTD"--a marking usually associated with the Rolex Watch Company. They would offer promotional giveaways, like this spoon, to customers who purchased a watch, circa 1950s.

This spoon and fork set is listed in Ted Hake's 2007 Official Price Guide to Disney Collectibles, 2nd edition, p. 387. The book dates the pair to 1938.

Salt and Pepper Shakers - Snow White and Dopey

I acquired this set of salt and pepper shakers back in 2002 at the World of Disney Store (Downtown Disney, WDW). It sold for $13.50 (USD). Snow stands 3 3/4" high, Dopey about 2 7/8". Made in China. The set is still available at theme park stores today.

And according to the folks over at Disneylicious, the set was available in park shops at Disneyland Paris from 2007 to 2009...

Post Huskies Cereal Bowl

Made by Vitrock Glass Company, this appears to be the bowl offered by Post as a premium with its Huskies cereal. It's interesting because the illustration of Snow White inside the bowl is different from that in the ad (below). My guess is that this is the actual bowl from 1938. The artist's rendering for the ad was probably produced before the bowl artwork. But to be sure, more research is needed.
